Lincoln is a big cat originally from the mean streets of Chicago now living in the idyllic burbs of Iowa. He blogs about life in general - focusing on the little ankle biters who generally leave him alone and don't pull his tail or whiskers.

Kid's Got Talent!
I love it when Alex grabs my camera and starts taking pictures - it's fun to look at them afterwards. I gotta say, I think he has a decent eye for composition! :)

UPDATE: 30 Pound Cat Status
Lincoln and Belden went in on Tuesday for their annual checkups at the vet. Belden, healthy as always, continued to maintain her girlish figure at 11 pounds.
The big guy, however, has lost another 1 1/2 pounds to weigh in at 34.4 lbs - down from 36.0 a year ago. This is really quite an accomplishment when you consider the average cat sleeps about 22 hours a day. Way to go Lincoln! Here are a couple shots of him after his checkup:

Check out (and order) photos!
We've been using Shutterfly for a few years now and have a lot of photos up there. Recently, Shutterfly started offering a free web site service to upload photos. Visitors can check them out and even order reprints. It's great if you want to get some shots that you like on the site. Even better, you have the option of having the reprints sent to your local Target where you can pick them up!

Undecided voter!
Alex can't seem to make up his mind who to support in this election! Sorry Uncle Chris, but we haven't taught him to say "Ron Paul" yet!

The Streak Continues...
My brother and sister-in-law had an ultrasound for their first child today, we're all thrilled that the baby looks healthy and everything is good...AND it looks like four grandsons in a row!
Alex wanted to extend his heartiest congratulations for his soon-to-be cousin:
Sam and Chris have a chance to break the streak next week...we'll see! :)

Why Des Moines is awesome...
Headlines like this in the local paper:
Brassieres disappear from Victoria's Secret
REGISTER STAFF REPORTS
Fifty brassieres have been stolen from Victoria's Secret at Merle Hay Mall in Des Moines.
Des Moines police list no suspects in the undergarment theft, which occurred sometime between 10 a.m. Saturday and noon Monday.
The bras were various sizes and colors. Police listed an estimated value of $2,000.
Meanwhile, a store spokesman for Walgreens at 1330 E. University Ave. reported a bold theft of a toothbrush. A police report said a man entered the store about 5 p.m. and went straight to the aisle with electric toothbrushes.
He grabbed a toothbrush and ran out the door to a white car with a get-away driver. Other Walgreens stores in the area were notified in case the thief tried to return it for cash at another store, police said.

Wow...crime wave!
